Install shot at the PrattMWP School of Art Gallery, November 2020
This fall I was afforded the opportunity to show a recent body of work at PrattMWP, the college where I teach. “I Bought These Flowers to Remember You” is a body of drawings, paintings, and statuettes commemorating the life of one of my dearest friends, Jane, who passed away in 2016.
At a time when so much is on hold and we are prevented from gathering, it has been a gift to see this project realized. I have posted more exhibition shots below.
